Who "Louder Than Hell" really can escape, belongs admitted. Manowar give again all to be true to their fans, and they have also managed. However, the production is a bit dull because the instruments & Eric does not sound right as on the last albums. Among the songs:
1. "Return Of The Warlord": The biker anthem par excellence! With a motorcycle middle part that goes into a solo, you can not do nothing wrong! Even a video is nonexistent!
2. "Brothers Of Metal Pt.1": getting used to the beginning, but the rest of Manowar typical level, in other words: It kicks ass!
3. "The Gods Of Heavy Metal": And the same the next Kracher, the conclusion is somewhat too protracted, what the rest of us but by no means harm.
4. "Courage": A Joey ballad purest water. A bit of keyboards, a little bit of electric guitar and the striking voice Eric!
5. "Number 1": Has been released as a single. In the beginning a bit confusing lyric, otherwise nice throughout.
6. "Outlaw": Here was again turned on cruise control: The with "The Power" fastest song. One of the first songs in which it comes to the Wild Western. The matching great solos by Karl.
7. "King": A little bit of keyboards, a lot of electric guitar and drums. To my taste a bit short, despite playing length of nearly 6:30 minutes.
8. "Today Is A Good Day To Die": There is almost no Manowaralbum without a slap on the enemies of the band. The first purely instrumental with all the instruments.
9. "My Spirit Lives On": an appendage of "Today Is A Good Day To Die" ergo an overlong solo by Karl with 2 breaks.
10. "The Power": short, crisp, not overdone cliché.
Conclusion: "Louder Than Hell" should be on the shelf every time.
Playing tips: everything!
